I think many bosses don't eliminate subordination. Choosing a master isn't freedom, capital concentrates even without the state, so the boot doesn't vanish because there are other boots, you just pick a different size
When you work for someone, you aren't under their subordination. You're exchanging your services for a payment, and if you don't like the nature of the arrangement, you can always just leave.
Sure, you can always leave and sleep outside, freedom!
Yes, that's exactly how it works
Do you have a concrete example?
Timed breaks, permission to shit, quotas, cameras. It's the rule, not the exception... then you need permission just to shit, it's not an exchange, I think it's a boot though it probably dressed itself up as a shoe
That sounds pretty bad. Are you able to find another employer? Or start your own business / freelance?
No boss, no schedule for years, but I don't forget my roots. I lived the slavery, nobody wants to be a slave and my escape doesn't erase the boot for everyone else
If you don't want to work, go on the dole
again, the lack of viable alternative jobs is usually a function of state intervention
When you are a citizen you are not under subordination to the state- you pay taxes and the state provides law and order and enforceable contracts - you are free to pack your bags and leave anytime.
That's not an exit, it's changing landlords
The boss's boot is only an issue if there aren't other bosses to choose from. And that tends to happen more in an economy with heavy state intervention, due to monopolistic powers granted by the state via burdensome compliance and licensing requirements, and sometimes a straight up endorsement of monopoly.
